Smoke & Mirrors
Conveyor Magazine No. 3 

Photography lies.  It’s supposed to.

Harnessing the sophistry that is inherent in the medium, collaboration between artful deception and red herrings can transform a gritty alleyway into a golden field of wheat, make ghosts appear on the horizon, or portray a wolf as the proverbial sheep. The employment of deceptive clues, false emphasis, symbolic meaning, and other tricks of the trade is befitting photography; whether through enigmatic questions disguised as assertions, ambitious and decadent arrangements, or that which appears deceptively effortless and simple, photographs often mislead the eye.

We are seeking photographic and print-based work that interprets the theme of Smoke & Mirrors in a unique and provoking way. As always, the theme is open-ended. However, submissions should be thoughtfully considered before submitting.
